Bad Ass Weather!

[FGB]

It pretty much wiped out Alto and Wells Texas yesterday and kill a couple of kids near here.

The weather said it was going to get bad but the little town of ALTO has two twisters in about an hour ...Cat.3 at least.

As for the East Coast...well I don't think Tiger is going to play much Golf today...

Y'all be take cover over there!

 

[SpeareChucker]

Yeah, it is a flying fickle finger of fate time of year weather-wise when it comes to the plains states.



Death is whimsical today...

 

[bellisarius]

Wouldn't of happened it Trump hadn't pulled out of the Paris accords.

(Preemptive strike against the snowflakes there^^^. )

 

[SpeareChucker]

*chuckle*


I sure didn't want to go there.

 

[SpeareChucker]

Although, I was going to go more along the lines of...


SO FAWKIN' WHAT?

It happened to deplorables!

Who gives two shakes of a rat's ass???



Get back to us when California is on fire or it rains/snows in Jersey.

 

[FGB]

Yeah, well...Regardless of the non sympathies of you heartless bastards it does give me to additional thought about the future.

Since we are going to have to put up with more and more fucked up weather.

I am looking from twenty-five to fifty years in the future.

I say "WE" I am too old to think I will have to worry about it for a real long time.

Staring ahead I for see several things.

People will move inland from the coast.

At some point the fashionable homes will be either built into the hills and mountains or under ground in some way that they do not get flooded.

Water storage and usage will change in some places.

Crop and animal raising will change also depending on regional weather trending.

Young people hang on to your asses as it is going to be a confusing and bumpy ride.

Learn to think and reason for yourselves because the politicians are well...fucking politicians!

And there are ALWAYS know it alls hammering away saying they know exactly the right thing. to do.

 

[SpeareChucker]

They'll never surrender their view but they will surrender your horse to pull a wagon up in KANSAS.

Who knows WHAT Kansas will be like in fifty years?.

Might need to send a bail of hay with him and some water!

or an extra blanket ...maybe sunscreen.


My point is there is about two percent and probably less change we can do something about if we wreck the economy of the whole earth trying to change the changing weather.

And a very good change that we will only make it worse.

 

[pointless]

yes, i'm sure i'll be much happier starving to death while choking on poison air knowing that the economy was really running at full steam right before it all collapsed.

 

[SpeareChucker]

For them, talk about climate change is mainly cocktail circuit chit-chat.

I pay attention to what they do and not what they say.

Clearly, they're not really worried...



Although a step in the right direction might be
"action hero" Keeanu Reeves who has
been seen flying commercial.
He can afford a jet...

 

[SpeareChucker]

yes, i'm sure i'll be much happier starving to death while choking on poison air knowing that the economy was really running at full steam right before it all collapsed.

We don't live in China...

It's been snowing in Houston off and on all winter.

CO2 =/= CO

 

[Ann_Tagonist]

Blizzard here. The narcissus are buried.

 

[someoneyouknow]

We don't live in China...

Correct. That's because we have laws against pollution which have been working for decades. No more acid rain for the Northeast from all the coal plants in the midwest, no more Love Canals (that we know of), the brown blanket of smog over LA is gone:

rivers aren't catching fire due to pollution and all manner of fish have returned to our streams and rivers now that we're no longer dumping our toxic crap directly into them.

 

[phrodeau]

A warm spell after the first chill of autumn used to be called, “Indian summer.”

I’m calling this particular moment, “immigrant winter.”

 

[Ann_Tagonist]

The power keeps going out.

 

[doowdniw]

CO2 =/= CO

=/=O.

 

[Mello_SixtyNine]

This weather is pissing me off.
Currently snowing here.
Tomorrow will be 51º.

 

[Ann_Tagonist]

It's snowing and my pollen allergies are raging.

 

[bellisarius]

Dude, over the next 50 years the climate is that last thing anyone is going to be worrying about.

 

[Que]

=/=O.

Why does everybody insist on being so stupidly obtuse on the issue of carbon dioxide?

There is not enough Carbon on or under the planet to burn or combust in sufficient quantities to displace the oxygen.

Even if you tried to combine all the carbon with oxygen and let's say that the concentration of oxygen on the planet with so insufficient that that was even possible long before you got to that point there wouldn't be enough oxygen left to combine with the carbon in order to produce carbon dioxide. You can't combust things to produce CO2 if you don't have oxygen.

If you want to worry about something... worry about the combination of hydrogen with oxygen.

Plenty of h20 to drown in.

No it hasn't.

 

[cowslinger64]

No it hasn't.

Rob... don't be so stupidly obtuse, the big giant head has SPOKEN!

 

[Wrong Element]

Having been through Wells, I'm surprised there was anything left there to wipe out.
